    Anyone over 30 who wears a baseball cap .
    You look ridiculous. If you're bald nobody cares . Take the stupid cap off.

    I'm 61 and wear a baseball cap on holiday in Greece, don't want to get my bald head burnt.

    Is that permissible or should I destroy the aforementioned cap?
    That's the sort of idiocy that makes me want to wear baseball caps. That some people get annoyed by caps on over 30s is worrying.

    And if you’re really lucky, you might get skin cancer.

    I have to be honest I was out with my dogs the other night wearing a baseball cap, a hoodie (with hood up) sunglasses (it wasn't sunny) trainers and cargo shorts and listening to Coldplay. I thought CL would go into feckin meltdown! ;)

    Wear a cricket hat with a brim. It will keep the sun off your face, neck and ears, identify you as an Englishman, but only to other Englishmen, and maintain the impression that your IQ might be above 85.

    Paragraph one, subsection one of a Guide to being an old bloke of almost 60 clearly states : Do not give a flying feck about what people think you should be wearing or listening to: ;)

    Getting a speeding ticket for going 60 on the M20 in the variable speed limit section with a 50 sign up ahead. I'm sure the one before was on 60 (and so I slowed to 50 for the one ahead) as I remember thinking it couldn't have been flashing me for that reason, but we all know I can't prove it!

    £100 that I really haven't got & 3 points, or if I'm lucky more money I really haven't got and a speed awareness course. Sigh.

    Same here, between Junc 6 and 7. In fact I think I'd just come of the slip road of 7 at speed when I noticed the 50 up above, so reduced speed, but only to 62 when I got snapped.

    Gutted as i genuinely don't take the piss with speed.

    Been offered the course for £67, so could have been worse I guess.

    The way Americans use cutlery . Fork in right hand knife in left then once they’ve cut a few things they put the knife down and swap the fork to the left hand and stab away at the cut food , fucking savages .

    My daughter's hidden the Jaffa cakes. I ate one or two (ok most) of the last packet so bought a replacement. Just settled with a cup of tea but no JC. Even my wife doesn't know where she's put them.

    I am bald and proud and stil wear a baseball hat to keep the sun away from my eyes. And when it's not sunny, I might even wear it backwards.

    People want the earth on a stick for as little as possible and still moan when they get it.

    Currently got my iPhone up on there and I’m preparing myself for all the daft questions I’m bound to get

    “Will you take £180?”

    Er no seeing as it has a starting price of £200 and will probably go for close to £280.

    I sold a TomTom device on Ebay and accidentally listed it as "New" rather than "Used"

    When the bloke received it (Paid £20 for it) he kicked up a stink about the condition clearly being used as the sound wasnt working etc. in the end I got so fed up with his attitude I offered him a refund minus the postage he'd paid - When I got it back I could see the sound wasnt working so went on to Google to see if it could be fixed... Took me less than five mins to sort!!

    Sold some clothes on there years ago and a woman complained that the jeans she got for £1.00 didn't fit and wanted a refund!

    To be fair I'd be exactly the same as him. Mistake or not you can't list something as new if it's not.

    For me I'd have questioned it before putting a bid in... i.e. I trust nothing so to see something brand new listed for £1 when it should be going for at least £50 would raise alarm bells in my head

    Lots of auctions start at low prices to garner more interest so nothing unusual there. I'm afraid the buyer isn't at fault here.
